As for humans, there are reports that an increase related to occupational exposure was observed in pneumoconiosis in 8 of 57 workers exposed to the dust associated with mica-scrap grinding, and that as a result of a review of 66 cases of mica pneumoconiosis, 26 cases were judged to have been caused by exposure to pure mica alone and in 6 of the cases, the diagnosis was based on clinical examination, radiography examination, and lung biopsy results (ACGIH (7th, 2001)).
From the above, it was classified in Category 1 (respiratory organs).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.

NOTE:
* A blank or "-" in a cell of classification denotes that the classification of the hazard class was not conducted.
* Hazard_statement_and/or_Precautionary_statement will show when hovering the mouse over a code of Hazard_statement_and/or_Precautionary_statement.
Hazard_statement_and/or_Precautionary_statement are also provided in the Excel file.
* Classification was conducted by relevant Japanese Ministries in accordance with GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government,
and is intended to provide a reference for preparing GHS labelling and SDS for users.
* This is a provisional English translation of classification results and is subject to revision without notice.
* The responsibility for any resulting GHS labelling and SDS referenced from this site is with users.
* Codes assigned to each of the hazard statements and codes for each of the precautionary statement are
based on the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) in United Nations.
